Hi,

I would like to add a section in my form, which comes live if any linked field is true.

I have tried conditional formatting but it doesnt give me an option for selecting sections.

Is this possible???

Thanks

Hi Hetal,

I'm not sure what you mean here. Conditional formatting can be done on sections. Did you double-click on the section and go to the Display tab?

I mean say for example if the value in a field goes greater than 5000 the linked section (which has couple of fields in itself) becomes visible for users to fill out. Otherwise its hidden sections.

Hi hmalkan,

1. Double click on the section.
2. Navigate to Display tab.
3. Click on conditional formatting.
4. Click Add.
5. Select the field from the first drop down.
6. Select 'is less than' from second drop down.
7. Type '5000' in the third field.
8. Check 'Hide this control' check box.
9. Click 'Ok'.

Hope this helps you!

I actually got it working in an optional section. If the field value is less than 5000, then dont allow users to insert or delete this section.

I actually want the section to open up itself. Instead of pressing the insert button.

Hetal,

Glad you could get it working, and sorry for not being able to understand the problem. Be sure to let us know if you have any other difficulties!
